Chapter 57

Qiongyuyuan is not the most special in the prosperous Princess Palace, although its owner is full of flamboyance and reputation all over the world.

However, Qiongyu Garden tonight was different from usual, it was extremely serious.

Hundreds of forbidden soldiers surrounded the small courtyard tightly, wearing golden armor and holding sharp halberds, with serious faces, staring angrily at everyone who entered and exited the courtyard.

Not even the loveliest maidens can make their iron faces smile.

Because Changsha King is inside.

In the brightly lit main hall, he sat opposite Jun Fengxi, and the former son-in-law Hua Jingrong stood awkwardly behind the prince, like a watchdog.

The eldest princess smiled and made tea.

The spring water sent urgently from eight hundred miles spits out pearl-like foam in the small red clay stove, and the gurgling sound is particularly ear-piercing in the silence of the night.

On the one hand, the purple shirt and jade belt are royal and majestic, and on the other hand, the robes and crowns are not limited to things, and everything is natural.

In the middle is a white jade chessboard, on which there are seven or eight particles fighting. It is the critical moment, but the two players are not in a hurry to continue. They just look at each other quietly, with smiles on their lips.

After a long time, the king of Changsha broke the silence.

He said, "Actually, the first time I saw you, I should have killed you."

"But there is no possibility in the world."

Jun Fengxi said with a smile, even though she knew that the person in front of her could squeeze him to death with just one finger, she could still show a gentle and indifferent smile, talking about life and death.

So he is qualified to sit opposite Changsha King.

And the king of Changsha also recognized him.

"I can still kill you now."

"You won't, and you can't kill it."

Jun Fengxi said softly, closing the folding fan in her hand and falling on the palm of her hand.The calm and unremarkable movements are done naturally and gracefully, but in Hua Jingrong's eyes, he is frightened.

The King of Changsha snorted and said, "I know you are a cultivator, and killing you requires a lot of means. Fortunately, you are still a human being, and I will soon become emperor."

"It's just that it will be soon, and it's not yet the emperor."

Jun Fengxi corrected her eyes and narrowed her eyes. Under the Ye Mingzhu, her eyes that were already as clear as water became clearer and more pleasant.

"You...are determined to fight against me and support King Yuzhang to ascend the throne?!"

The King of Changsha has always been prudent, but at this moment his heart was filled with anger, his voice became sweeter, with a cloyingly sweet aura.

"I'm only on the side of the winner."

Jun Fengxi put down the folding fan, picked up a chess piece, and dropped it into the middle.

The murderous intention suddenly appeared.

The King of Changsha showed joy, and said, "I thought it would take another half an hour to wait for your next step."

"You have always been my underling's defeater. I didn't make a fuss just now. I just thought about how to prevent you from losing the whole situation too early."

"You really are a gentleman."

The king of Changsha spoke praises and criticisms, but Jun Fengxi could hear his displeasure, but lightly waved his folding fan and accepted it casually.

With a few slaps and a few steps each, Changsha King's Heizi really showed signs of defeat, but Jun Fengxi was not in a hurry to pursue him, and just slaughtered slowly.With ease, Heizi seemed to be in danger all over the place, and even Hua Jingrong, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but put his palm on the handle of the knife.

The king of Changsha was in the game, and he suffered even more, but he had a very good demeanor. Even if the situation was poor, he could still say slowly: "Feng Xi, you claim to be a cultivator, why is there no one on the chessboard?" Indifferent?"

"Who said that a cultivator should be indifferent? Giants don't argue with ants, it's not because he is indifferent, but because it's not worth it."

Jun Fengxi spoke lightly, which caused the eldest princess to burst into a smirk, but Hua Jingrong was so angry that she almost drew her sword.

"Are you determined to fight against my Ninth Five Lord's fate?"

King Changsha's expression finally turned ugly. Since he could kill his elder brother for the sake of the throne, he naturally didn't mind killing another "friar" who was like a chariot.

"Destiny can be changed, but fate is immutable?"

Jun Fengxi said kindly, and made another son.

Changsha King's complexion became more and more ugly.

"A Luan has always been as weak as a woman, but she actually made the decision to commit suicide by taking poison. Behind the scenes...you instigated it?"

His voice trembled a little, whether it was excitement or disbelief.

Jun Fengxi said noncommittally: "I have been under your eyes these days. You know where you have been and who you have met. Why do you have to listen to me say it yourself?"

"I just want to know who you are, a chess player or a pawn?"

"A chess player can be a chess piece, and a chess piece can also be a chess player. There is no absolute relationship between a chess piece and a chess player."

He pinched a particle with jade-like fingers and tapped on the table. The sound was not loud, but it hurt a little when it fell on the ears.

King Changsha closed his eyes, as if he was recollecting the meaning of these words, and seemed to be thinking about how to solve the current predicament.

After a long time, he opened it again.

"Recently, the capital is not peaceful, and a small group of Xiliang remnants are rampant everywhere. You have a close relationship with King Yuzhang, so be careful." He said.

"Thank you, my lord, for your concern."

Jun Fengxi nodded and smiled humbly, as if his skin couldn't express anything other than a smile.

And the king of Changsha likes this, even if it is hypocritical, it is as comfortable as the spring breeze.

So he wasn't angry, and even smiled.

"Brother Huang passed away, and Ah-gan made an apology, saying that he was so sad that he couldn't afford it, and his foot disease recurred, so he couldn't go to Beijing to attend the funeral. Alas, if the situation in Beijing and Central was not severe, I would have troubled you to go there and treat him. "

After finishing speaking, he looked at Jun Fengxi and the eldest princess with unsatisfactory expressions.

Jun Fengxi didn't seem to understand the deep meaning in the words, she took another pill and said, "Okay."

The King of Changsha couldn't help being stunned, and finally squeezed out a "yes"!
……

……

Compared with the calmness and fierceness of the Princess's mansion, the Fu family is almost calm.

The disposition of Li Yongyu is already very clear, even if the Changsha throne becomes a great treasure, the Fu family will never tolerate this vicious woman.Considering that there are many eyes and ears at the foot of the imperial city, Aunt Shen suggested that the eldest wife Fu Ling should take her along with her when she returned to her hometown - returning to the Northland is the sphere of influence of the Fu clan, how to deal with a concubine who does not obey women's morals There is no need to worry about the consequences.

Wei Guogong stayed in Fu's residence for a while, and their husband and wife were indifferent to the affairs of the inner courtyard, so naturally they would not have any objections.

So the overall situation was decided, and the Fu family got busy, which ones were kept and which ones went back to the North, and Aunt Shen put them into a booklet and handed it over to the eldest wife for review.

The old lady was still lying unconscious on the bed, and Yu Jing had received all kinds of care from her on weekdays, so she naturally served her attentively these days and never let anyone talk about her.

Only in the dead of night——

"Second lady, do you really want to stay?"

Aunt Liu asked cautiously, she spent most of her life in Fu's house, seeing it building tall buildings and seeing it collapse, for some reason, she felt somewhat desolate.

"Naturally, I stayed. I, Fu Yujing, shouldn't have lost to the lady next to me."

"But--"

Aunt Liu glanced at the lifeless old lady behind the screen, she had something to say but dared not say it.

"I know the old lady treats me well. But this time, if you miss it, it's over."

Yu Jing said lightly, and walked around the screen. Aunt Liu didn't know what she was going to do, so she hurried in.

She walked slowly to the old lady's bed, took the old and dry hand, and carefully pressed it to her cheek.

The smooth and flawless face, and the wrinkled hands, touched together, the contrast was eye-catching, and it was a bit intrusive.

She touched the old lady's hand and spoke slowly.

"Old Ancestor, although I am born of a concubine, my aunt is shameless. But I really don't think that a concubine deserves to be inferior to a concubine. You also said that as long as you are still in your boudoir, a lady is generally honorable. Taking care of my ancestors, I will definitely have a future that is not inferior to that of the concubine, but I have been to so many occasions with the eldest wife, and I know... Believe it or not, the world sees the difference between the concubine and the concubine."

Speaking of this, there are light tears falling, falling into the wrinkles, and disappearing quickly.

Aunt Liu felt sore when she heard it, but she didn't dare to speak out, so she had to take out a silk handkerchief to wipe it.

"I respect and love myself, but what I get is the contempt of the world. They laugh at me for being taller than the sky, and for not knowing how to measure. I am born of a concubine, but is it my choice to be born a concubine? Besides... I am also from the Fu family My lady! Why is it that I am honored when I was born, and humble when I was born? Why am I inferior in appearance, beauty, talent and learning... but I am still inferior in every way?"

"Second lady, this... this is my fault, it's my fault..."

Aunt Liu spoke with sobs, but Yu Jing ignored her and just continued talking on her own.

"Even if the fourth lady is liked by the eldest princess, she changed her genealogy and became a descendant of a concubine, she can't escape the rule that concubines are different. Could it be that it is so difficult for a woman born of a concubine to find a good home?"

She closed her eyes, breathing silently and calmly, as if she needed to gain strength from the old lady.

Aunt Liu looked at her daughter who suddenly became strange, and couldn't help crying.

Yu Jing ignored Aunt Liu's crying, she felt it silently, and suddenly, the old lady's fingers moved.

Startled, Yu Jing let go of her hand and turned her head.

The old man opened his dim eyes, and the corners of his mouth trembled, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't make a sound.

Yu Jing went over with her ears, her ears pressed against her lips.

The old lady only said four words: "Let go, hand, go, do."

The voice is very soft and weak, but the emotion conveyed is very strong.

Yu Jing put her ear next to her and said, "Okay."

Then he raised his head and said to his cowardly and incompetent mother: "When I was in Yuelu Mountain, a Taoist once said that I was born with the fate of a phoenix and a phoenix, and I should not give up on myself and marry an ordinary person. It is a pity that these words are too peculiar. It’s the random words of a charlatan. But I firmly believe that this is my destiny, and I said to my ancestors, if the second lady is destined to be the Luanfeng who will be the princess, why would you find a husband among the chickens?”

Aunt Liu was taken aback for a moment, but she couldn't say a word.

Yu Jing glanced at the old lady again, and there was a faint sharpness in her eyes.

"Auntie, tell me, why did you compete with Auntie Zhang for the room?"

Aunt Liu bit her lower lip, and said: "Because... because I am not reconciled. Although I was born as a servant girl, I spent more on food and clothing since I was a child, but I am more decent than a lady from a small family. See you in the backyard of Fu's house I am used to the world, and at the age of 20, how could I be reconciled to marrying that vulgar servant suddenly! Even though my ancestors thought of me, they still let me work in the house after being married, and let me have a good man It's an errand, but it's always not reconciled!"

"So you'd rather be a roommate than go out."

"Yes, I am so unambitious, I have been serving people's lives all my life! I am the one who hurt you, and I am the one who made you suffer!"

As he spoke, he looked tearful again.

Yujing couldn't see her like this, so she gave her a hard look, and said, "My aunt did nothing wrong. The maidservants serve others, and the aunt also serves others. The maid's daughter is still a servant girl, and she still serves others. Although the aunt's daughter is The concubine is half the master after all. I hate that I am a concubine and inferior to others, but I never feel that my aunt's fight is wrong."

She looked at Aunt Liu, and emphasized word by word: "Fate may be determined by God, but the road is made by people. The sky says that I am destined by Luanfeng. If I am still willing to be manipulated by others, wouldn't it be a disappointment?" God's will!"

"So - I want to fight once, I want to stand out! I want all the people who have despised me to kneel in front of me and beg for forgiveness."

It was a night before the end of summer in the fifth year of Chengshi. When Yujing made her oath in front of the old lady's bed, there was no lightning, no thunder, the autumn wind was getting cooler, and the yellow leaves were swaying.
